The artistic and vertical events—freeflying, freestyle, vertical formation skydiving and mixed formation skydiving—along with speed skydiving wrapped up Saturday. Some tight competitions and amazing flying made for an exciting few days.

In the artistic events, both multi-time national champion teams reclaimed their titles—Oceanside FLO in freefly and FSC Animare XP in freestyle. Newcomer Axiom XP put on an impressive show to earn silver in freestyle.
